In this embodiment, when the circuit board 100 and a main board (not shown) are soldered by hot pressing, it is first necessary to place a solder paste on a connection area (not shown) of the main board. The connection area corresponds to the hot pressing area 121 of the first circuit layer 12. Then the second circuit layer 22 of the circuit board 100 is attached to the solder paste in the connection area, a hot pressing head is pressed against the hot pressing area 121 of the first circuit layer 12, the hot pressing head heats the hot pressing area 121, and heat of the hot pressing area 121 is transferred through the first conductive bodies 13 and the second conductive bodies 23 to the second circuit layer 22, so that the solder paste directly in contact with the second circuit layer 22 is heated and melted. At the same time, the hot pressing head applies pressure to the circuit board 100, and the melted solder paste fully contacts the connection area between the second circuit layer 22 and the main board.

In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the hot pressing area 121 forms the first conductive bodies 13 in the first via holes 143 by an electroplating method, and the non-hot pressing area 122 forms the first conductive bodies 13 in the first via holes 143 by a conductive paste method (not shown).

S13: referring to FIG. 4, etching the first copper foil layer 141 to obtain the first circuit layer 12, and etching the second copper foil layer 142 and the electroplated layer 144 to obtain a third circuit layer 145.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 5, in step S13, the first base layer 11 is exposed inside the etching line 123, and the etching line 123 is in the shape of a semi-enclosed frame. The first circuit layer 12 is divided into the hot pressing area 121 inside the frame and the non-hot pressing area 122 outside the frame. By providing the etching line 123 in the shape of a semi-enclosed frame, it is possible to effectively reduce heat conduction from the hot pressing area 121 (that is, inside the frame of the etching line 123) to the non-hot pressing area 122, so that the heat in the hot pressing area 121 is mainly conducted to the second circuit layer 22 through the first conductive bodies 13 and the second conductive bodies 23, so that hot-press soldering is completed under the condition of lower temperature, thereby reducing the risk of forming brittle sintered interfaces at the end of the second conductive bodies 23 due to high temperature, which is beneficial to improve the reliability of the product.

In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 6 and 12, in step S13, the third circuit layer 145 includes a signal circuit 1451 and a plurality of first ground pads 1452 electrically isolated from the signal circuit 1451.

The first signal pad 1213 and the signal circuit 1451 are electrically connected through the first conductive bodies 13. The first signal pad 1213 is electrically isolated from the copper sheet 1211. By connecting the second ground pad 1212 to the copper sheet 1211 and designing a separation between the copper sheet 1211 and the first signal pad 1213, the copper sheet 1211 can shield a portion of the electrical signals in the first signal pad 1213. By connecting the second ground pad 1212 and the copper sheet 1211 through the microstructures 1214, heat transfer from the second ground pad 1212 to the copper sheet 1211 during a thermocompression soldering process is reduced, so that the heat on the second ground pad 1212 is more concentratedly conducted to the second circuit layer 22, so that the second ground pad 1212 can complete the thermocompression soldering process under the condition of lower temperature, which can further reduce the risk of forming brittle sintered interfaces at the ends of the second conductive bodies 23 due to high temperature, and the reliability of the product is improved.
